"Hotel Rwanda" is a great film based on a true story. Paul Rusesabagina, played by Don Cheadle, is a hotel owner in Rwanda. This film takes place during the Hutu-Tutsi genocide. Paul takes in thousands of refugees to make sure that they are safe. He is considered a hero for becoming a caretaker during this terrible time. While he is taking care of everyone else he has to make sure his family is alright also. He wants to make sure his guests are alright but his family are obviously his number one priority.
This film is beautifully filmed and directed. While watching this film the audience feels like they are in this hotel trying to make they can be safe. Don Cheadle does an amazing job and he is one of the best actors of our lifetime. Almost every role he is in, he is gold, especially on his Showtime show, "House of Lies." Nick Nolte and Sophie Okonedo also did an amazing job in this film. They really help make this film even better. Terry George really made this come to life and it is a great film to see mainly because it really explains this genocide really well. It was a terrible time for Rwanda but this film really shows the hardships of this time. Go see it!
Grade = 92/100 = A-
